Impossible insights made possible through minimally invasive force & pressure measurement.
Tekscan is the world's leading innovator and manufacturer of tactile pressure, surface sensing, and force measurement solutions for test and measurement. From force measurement to pressure and temperature mapping, our sensing solutions provide unique data and insight to validate your technology, reduce costs, and enhance product design and quality for optimal results. Tekscan manufactures three distinct types of test & measurement analysis systems -- those used for measuring a matrix of pressure or temperature, or a single point of force. Depending on the type of data you wish to capture, one system option may serve your needs better than the other.

Not sure which system type you are looking for? See more system information below comparing matrix array and single point systems:
Pressure mapping systems utilize a matrix of sensing points to measure pressure distribution across the entire sensing array.
Force measurement systems measure load and force at a single sensing point.
Example of Output Data from a Force Measurement System
Our newest system for temperature mapping captures real-time temperature data via our ultra-thin and flexible thermoresistive sensor.
See it in action here combined with our pressure mapping sensor. Watch this test of a household iron being pushed across our pressure and temperature sensors.
Now you can and correlate temperature and pressure in sync!
